[Q] Major problem with Skyraider 3.3 ROM and battery!!

I am having several major problems with my phone ever since I tried flashing some new stuff over the Skyraider 3.3 final ROM!! Everything was fine, except for the extremely excessive battery drain after I installed the ROM the first time. Then I flashed a splash zip and also the blue battery circle zip and last but not least the #5 kingxklick bfs kernal. Ever since then my phone has gone berserk. When I hold down my power button, not only does the screen for all of the options(hibernation, power down, reboot, etc..) not come up, it just goes straight to my bootanimation screen and it boots back up. Also, the excessive battery drain has gotten worse!! So, I booted back into recovery and did a restore. This seemed to stop the craziness of my phone, unfortunately it still just reboots when I hold the power button down and the excessive battery drain is still going on!!! Anyone have any suggestions? I'm afraid to do anything else because it seems that I have done enough for right now top screw it up!

Make sure you're not overclocking more than your phone can handle (if at all).
I'm running this same combo (SR 3.3/Kingxkernel BFS #5) and it's working quite well for me with good battery life.
If you choose to reinstall, do a complete wipe/cache wipe *twice* from the recovery menu before flashing.

First of all, Thank you very much!! I know this is a dumb question, but how do I check to see if I'm overclocking? I don't know how to do that, obviously. Ha.

that rom is dependant on radio, and HBoot being up to date. If you don't meet both, you will have problems. I had all sorts of issues with 3.3 when I installed it only to find you have to have s-off, 2.15 radio, and .79 Hboot. The reboot problem is more than likely the Hboot, anything below .79 frow what I understand will not support the new hibernation modes, which causes the reboot.

I was using the hibernation mode every night since it came out on .77 HBOOT with no issues. I only just now updated HBOOT cause I got bored and wanted the newest one lol.. But yeah, was I just lucky? :/

[Q] Help please!! anyone.

Trying to install Vaelpak 3.0 and I am having 1 hell of a time. I'm thinking it has something to do with my radio wimax pri nv ect.... because earlier in the week I tried flashing the combo and everything went to hell on my phone. I since then had to flash back to the previous radio and then had vp 2.3 running fine again. After that I learned that it was kernel specific problems with older HTC kernels so I flashed netarchy's and then went back to the radio combo and had this problem with my CPU load at 100% and always running at near 1ghz. Then I learned if your rom is not based on the 3.3 that the newest PRL with continue to overload your CPU the entire time. I hadn't gotten this problem really fixed by the time I found VP 3.0 and figured flashing this would just fix my problem with the newest PRI because its based on the 3.3 update.
After a full wipe (data, 2x cache, 2x dalvik) I flashed 3.0 only to get stuck in a white screen boot loop. So I DLed the file from another link moved it manually to my SD and flashed that... same problem. Then I decided I would restore my 2.3 through RA install rom manager and change my recovery over to clockwork to try to install the rom. No go. Then I flashed a previous version of 2.1 used rom manager to put RA back on (I've found this more reliable but at this point who the hell knows). Went into recovery and restored my backup made as of this friday. Still having the problems with the CPU load so I went back to recovery and flashed the older radio combo but noticed this doesn't have NV on it(not sure what NV is either). But all seemed to be working fine for moment until 2.3 started randomly restarting on me. So now my 2.3 isn't working and can't get 3.0 to flash.
Next thing I thought to do was to wipe all again flash 3.0 and then flash netarchy's kernel over the htc #15. BAM!! I get it to run through the boot into the set up menu asking for my gmail account. I enter my account info and wait, wait, wait, then it says cannot get reliable connection to google servers (also I notice that my data instead of a 3g icon says EvDo). Well now this can't be good. I try to turn on my wifi it says that wifi cannot perform search. I enter my network manually cannot find network. I've tried updated profile pri and everything else from settings and always get same error with communications saying call sprint(don't wanna do this will immediately void my warranty I'm thinking). Now the last thing left for me to check is if I can get 2.3 up again and check my wifi ect... through that.
Wipe, Wipe, Wipe, flash older radio combo, flash previous NV that wasn't in combo as far as I could tell, restore 2.3. All seems to be going well until I try my wifi. Cannot search again. WTF?? then instantly black screen to no where. Pull battery try again, get into the settings and then black screen back to Vaelpak boot animation. I am completely lost here I could really use some help. Like I said in the beginning I have a sneaking suspicion it has something to do with the radios combo ect... but can't figure it out on my own.

Well in case this has happened to anyone else and it is likely to happen somewhere down the road from people upgrading to roms based of the 3.7 update. The quickest fix I found was.
1. DL Unrevoked Forever from web page and flash it
2. Find a stock ruu for the 3.7 or do what I did and just DL Sprint Lovers PC36IMG.zip place in root of SD card and boot into hboot. Install the ruu.
3. Go to settings>software updates and update the PRI and the Profile
4. Remove the PC36IMG.zip from root of your SD card
5.(only applicable if you used the stock ruu) take your recovery of choice name it PC36IMG.zip and place in root of SD card. Boot into HBoot and install
then remove that from root as well.
6. Flash the Rom you were wanting to flash. This will take care of all Radio, Wimax, PRI, NV, and other problems between 3.7 based roms, Kernels and Radios.
Hopes this helps someone along the way.

Went from CR 6.1.1 back to Warm 2.2 having problems

Basically when I install the warm 2.2 rom it will hang on the htc evo screen. I had flashed this rom earlier this morning and it flashed fine. Ever since I've flashed CR 6.1.1 this afternoon i've been having problems. Even my baked snack 1.9 rom is very slow but comes up after either sitting at the Green HTC text after it has booted. I had to power down the phone a few times to even get that to come up. Is there something I'm doing wrong here all the sudden? I am clearing davlik and partition cache, even tried to wide data/restore to no avail. I'm at a loss here. Anyone have any input here? As I type this, I just did a complete wipe and tried to install Warm 2.2 and it is just sittin at the white screen that says HTC EVO 4G. Powered down a few times and removed battery for a minute to no avail, still just sits at that white screen.
I am able to restore from nandroid. I am also able to isntall a few roms.
Thanks
Dave

Uh, what kernel/radios are you using? I had similar problems when I flashed the all in one radio combo in calk's thread.

That is exactly what I did too, flashed the radios. How did you resolve that issue? I dind't even think that would cause these types of problems.
I just put on Fresh 3.5 and it installed fine. I am using kernel 2.6.32.17-gee557fd (under it says [email protected] #15 (Which kernel would that be?) PRI is 1.90_003
Well I downgraded the radio to2.15.00.09.01 and I got past the white screen and into warm. THanks much!! I had no idea that a radio would just cause it to hang like that. So the only way to revert back to an old radio file is to install it? A nanrestore doesn't do that it appears??
Thanks very much

[Q] 4g mac address gone?

So i just noticed my 4g mac address is blank in hardware information and 4g refuses to stay enabled.
all i've done with the phone was root using unrevoked 3.3 (was actually the beta rc2) i installed a couple different kernels, 2 from netarchy, and one from ms (sbc guy)
i also switched from clockwork recovery to amon ra 1.8 and then to amon ra 2.1.1
i have a nandroid from just after i started flashing kernels using clockwork. can't seem to get clockwork reflashed and working now. it flashes in rom manager but can't get into recovery at all, goes right to the bootloader.
i also flashed a couple things from calkulin, mms compression fix, and 4 in 1 boot menu.
oh and after i first flashed ms's kernel and saw my camera stopped working i downloaded the stock kernel and flashed thgat, which didn't work and eventually nandroided back to my original nandroid backup.
what, if any of those things could have lost my mac address?

little update, was able to restore my oldest nandroid from clockwork finally.
after some digging the xml file with my mac address is present in data/misc/wimax.
with my original nandroid i was able to keep the 4g radio enabled, however it wouldn't hold a connection. i don't usually get really good 4g at my house anyhow but usually if i stand near the front door i can get a weak connection, not the case now.
restored my most recent backup, xml file is there but when i turn on 4g it scans for a bit then shuts off. doesn't even keep the radio on.

I would go back to that nandroid and then try reflashing the setup with your 4g not working to see if that's messing up your 4g

compatible kernels with synergy+godmode rls1?

Hi there all, first post and its great to be here. On to the question or request rather. I have recently rooted my EVO using revolutionary (great work by those guys), and originally flashed cm7, I started searching around for new roms and flashed synergy+godmode rls1, now I'm looking to increase the battery life by flashing a custom kernel, the only problem is, every time Ii do so, it gets stuck on the white HTC screen.
I have let the phone sit for about 20 minutes before doing a battery pull. I tried lithids kernel and golden monkey to no avail. Am I doing something backwards or is there an issue elsewhere? I have wiped cache, data and dalvik cache.

I'm going to take a guess at it since your not on right now and I'm about to go to bed, but Im going to venture out and say that your probably using clockworkmod as your recovery. Download and install amon ra 2.3. Wipe what you wiped before 3 times and try to flash again. If this wasn't the case please disregard this reply.
sent from my nike crushing Godmode Synergistic EVO!

i use also Amon_Ra recovery.and didnt encounter any problem on flashing kernels and rom.
Synergy Godmode Rsl1+Aggressive Freedom kernel+cpu overclock = superfast Fast Evo

I just switched over to Amon Ra, and attempted to flash the Aggressive FREEDOM-Synergy GODMODE kernel, i still just get the HTC EVO 4g white screen for ever.
It's been approximately 10 minutes sinced I flashed the kernel and the phone has done nothing but stare at me with it's googly white screen...
I wiped data/cahe/dalvik-cache three times as instructed but I still have no success?
EDIT:
Android Version: 2.3.3
Sense Version: 2.1
Software: 4.24.651.1
PRI: 2.15_003
Kernel: 2.6.35.10
Baseband: 2.15.00.05.02
Build: Synergy (RLS1 + GodMode)
Hardware Ver.: 0004

Problem solved
Seems as though the Agressive-Freedom-GODMODE kernel has something wrong with it, or my phone does not take too kindly to that kind.
I flashed the Aggressive-Freedom-UNIVERSAL kernel and it works just fine. Thanks for everyone's time.
side note:: If the flash works properly it should say "Congratulations youre now running Lithid's sense kernel" (or something along those lines). Which I did not get previously.

New edit:: since I could not find a fix for the wifi, I flashed my recovery and have. Not been able to flash a new kernel since. Basically what I am looking for is a kernel to be able to OC and undervolt, not sure if synergy supports this or not. If not that's fine but, ant Roman out there that may be slightly better than synergy godmode with some sense 3.0 features?
